I have always felt that I have an obligation to provide as much information about my experiences in engine building and dealing with machine shops and vendors ETC. as I can, simply to make life far easier and allow readers to avoid as many mistakes, that I see being made, and yes I also made a whole bunch in the past, so I gained a good deal of experience, and learned a great deal, that may be helpful, SO I want to do as much as I can to help others avoid making mistakes and wasting cash. and point out what should be done, why its required, and how you can avoid mistakes, that's the main reason I started this website
I would really appreciate any financial help, you gentlemen might choose to provide
but the main goal is helping as many people as possible avoid making mistakes or wasting cash

as there's a constant and ever recurring expense to keep the web site operational,
I've got a $287 minimum bill next month and we very rarely see monthly donations totals exceed $50,
most months are under $50 and I cough up the difference.
I never expected this to be a money making enterprise,
I built the web site with the help of a few other old and experienced,geezers,
hoping to help out the guys that need a reliable reference point and place to ask questions,
and help less experienced members avoid problems or wasting cash and time
I think the vast majority of the membership appreciates the info.
but few realize the time and effort required.
I only too well remember how difficult it was as a young guy to get strait answers and not get the local machine shops basically over charge for at times work they either never did ,
or did badly because they knew most guys did not understand,
either what needed too be done or if it had been done correctly.
we try had to give you the facts and make the readers more knowledgeable, and too answer questions.
I know we help hundreds of people every month, but its financially a burden to keep the web site open,
so if you can afford to pitch in a few bucks occasionally its greatly appreciated, we could do a lot of projects and web site up-grades if we had anything close to a consistent cash flow.

so if anyone cares to chip in a few bucks to offset the regularly recurring cost to keep the web site functioning PLEASE CONSIDER DOING SO!
